• #38 - Part 2: More with Jackie Simmons – It’s a Big Conversation!
    May 5 2025

    Self-Preservation – it’s real – and it’s true that we each know someone who has tried or died as Jackie says.


    TheSuicideProventionSociety.com has a guide that can help you talk with someone else about this pivotal point in life. With this guide you can inspire hope where it’s needed. It directs you to activate a discussion without causing angst, and then take the conversation to a new place and create reasons for staying. Go to the website and find this valuable information that opens this subject into the airways – and saves lives. This format creates a way to break the silence.


    It’s not for you to do this on your own – whether you are at risk or someone you know is at risk. Please know that this direction is there for you – It’s about rewiring your brain so that there are more reasons to stay than to leave. It’s not easier for everyone else if you’re not around, it’s mental jujitsu to find your way ‘in’ to find more options for life so that this opens the way to hope.


    This is a ‘hump’ to get over. Come listen to this important conversation and go to TheSuicideProventionSociety.com to get help. Healthy people build a buffer between these thoughts and their subconscious thoughts. Get a copy of the ‘Why Not’ worksheet off of the website. Times can be tough, and Jackie teaches a ‘pause button’. Hear her guidance. Inform yourself.

The Heroine’s Journey is about encountering these times, and summoning up the Courage and Strength to journey onward. Your Life is unfolding, sometimes painfully, but always with more to come for you.

  • #35 - The ‘Do I Stay, or Do I Leave?’ Marriage Question with Linda Graf
    Mar 24 2025

    Linda Graf’s expertise as a Certified Relationship and Mental Fitness Coach is to help people figure out – do I stay in a marriage (recommit) or leave it (and go)? What a big question when you find yourself in this place – or another tough decision – to get clarity and move along! She inspires women to find their courage and strength to have the relationship that they dream of. She helps women to claim their story and tell it so that they can break into what is real for them. Often there is so much going on – and it takes a neutral space to begin the exploration.


    What does she do to tease out your voice in this situation where there are many parameters that tell us to stay or leave – and the real need is to get to what you really want and are willing to do? She points out that there is no right or wrong – just a direction for your own life. Where do you start, and what steps take you forward? It’s getting clear on what path is your path. What are you accepting now that you are afraid to ask for where you are? Can you name it – and see where the gaps are? When we don’t like something – she says – it tells you what you do like. What is it you really want – humor, play, commitment, emotion and more – what is it? How do you sort it all out – Linda Graf tells us…do you accept or convert?
